Health advice for Airtours passengers

HEALTH information service Medicdirect is to provide Airtours International passengers with travel health advice in response to fears over deep vein thrombosis.

Travellers will receive advice in the airline’s in-flight magazine Hot, and a video has been produced highlighting exercises that can be done from their seat.

Medicdirect marketing manager Tom Osborne said passengers would also receive advice on other health issues, such as avoiding jetlag.
